I think 240 of those pages were talking about Ross getting the gig and 9.5 were George having the same argument with 10 different people

I just watched the presser, and saw the photos from the saints website. No surprise the boys look inspired and have a fire in their eye in. I wanted to play for St Kilda after hearing RTB speak today.
If you had any doubts about Ross Lyon being the saints next coach. They are gone.
Lyon hasn’t even addressed the playing group, facilitated a training session or won a game. But after that press conference. Every coach in the league would of taken note. It will be a very different St Kilda team that they will be competing against.
The way Lyon and Basset handled that interview after the last week of all the talk in the media, on social media and most importantly the first time addressing the public and supporters (players) of where the club is going. They couldn’t of delivered a better press conference.

I've always had a lot time for Eddie, he was a great president for Collingwood, a mover and shaker that got Malthouse from West Coast to coach them.
I think he has a soft spot for St Kilda as he always barracked for us when he commentated our games and he probably would have been barracking for us in the 2010 GF too if we weren't playing Collingwood. It wouldn't surprise me either if he was helping us out behind the scenes to land Geoff Walsh and Ross Lyon who he clearly rates highly.
I've got no doubt Eddie would have loved to have Ross Lyon coaching Collingwood but as I've said before I don't think Ross has much interest in coaching the big successful clubs like Collingwood, Carlton or Essendon, that doesn't excite him, and that's one of the reasons he knocked them back.
Coaching smaller unsuccessful clubs like St Kilda and Freo that have long premiership droughts or no premierships at all is what excites him and inspires him and he basically confirmed that at the presser today when he talked about wanting to climb Mount Everest again to win a premiership with us.
He got us to within sight of the peak of Everest twice and then we ran out of oxygen and choked, this time he should be better prepared with better sherpas and more oxygen with a better resourced base camp so hopefully we can go all the way.

It's been a wild day. Still kind of in shock but just so looking forward to next season. There was so much to like about the press conference. A few thoughts:
- There's obviously some smoke and mirrors around, frankly how we got Ross or when we talked to him I couldn't give a shit we identified who we wanted and got him.
- Ross says he doesn't know the list but I believe he likes the list and thinks we underperformed last year. Hopefully he is right.
- The talk of the four pillars is really spot on. We need to be a strong organisation in all areas.
- I think there were some interesting titbits from Bassatt. Regarding Ratts he said he couldn't articulate a clear vision or direction for the team going forward. I think that sealed his fate.
I kind of love that the rest of the footy world hates this. It probably shows that it's the right thing to do because so many feel more comfortable when we are down. We are hated by so many supporters when we get up and about and I genuinely think there is some subconscious fear among other supporters.
Can't wait for next year.
